Last night, the worlds of fashion and art collided at London’s Victoria and Albert Museum for the star-studded dinner to mark the opening of Schiaparelli: Fashion Becomes Art. The first UK exhibition dedicated to the house traces the legacy of Elsa Schiaparelli and its current reimagining under Daniel Roseberry, with the evening bringing together friends of the house, artists, and patrons to explore both Schiaparelli’s historic 20th-century designs and Roseberry’s contemporary visions.
Naturally, the dress code was a witty spin on modern eveningwear. Daisy Edgar-Jones kept things neat and buttoned-up in a two-piece from the fall 2026 collection, while Elizabeth Debicki embraced the sculptural edge of Roseberry’s collections. Chase Infiniti opted for a lobster-red dress with contoured details, and Regina King, Naomi Ackie, Gabbriette, and Rina Sawayama all embraced the creative side of one of fashion’s most daring labels.
